I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

i think the executive orders directing agencies to end energy efficiency regulations and open up more land to drilling and mining is so indicative of the character of the american right — in its view everything, whether people or our larger environment, is something to be exploited and dominated

Absolutely dystopian to hear jail and prison operators essentially begging to be chosen to imprison people. No one, no town should ever make money off of detaining others this is insane

Our societal economics are so broken. I hear on the radio details of Portland’s massive budget shortfall while driving past a sign promoting the levy our school district desperately needs to pass so we can function. Yet a single person may very well be a trillionaire soon. What are we doing?

Since we’re all talking about Greenland and Canada now would be a good time to remind people that Puerto Rico and Washington, DC actually should be added as the 51st and 52nd states.

What is there left to say about the mass murder of our children that hasn’t already been said?
We know the solution. We know the obstacles. And not enough changes to prevent the next mass shooting.
But at least CEOs are getting free therapy & security & terror charges against peaceful detractors.😐

Despite earning $4.4 billion over the last 5 years
Not only did Tesla pay no taxes
It got $1 million in government refunds-while paying its executives $2.5 billion
And though Elon Musk recently had a large tax bill
In many years he paid at a rate of 3.27%
STOP GIVING SUBSIDIES TO BILLIONAIRES

Democracy only works if we participate in it. Vote. Work on a campaign. Run.
I updated this due to an astute follower pointing out that Alabama changed their laws to have off year local elections as well. That's a lot of races in 2025 in some 31 states! Local elections matter! Get involved! Send a message! This doesn't even include a bunch of special elections happening now!

A lot of you need to hear this:
Saying “there will be no more elections” is capitulating in advance. You are signaling that you are getting your brain accustomed to the idea of not having elections, and whether you realize it or not, you are getting EVERYBODY used to it. 1/2

My response to “protect norms and institutions” is not “norms and institutions are bad.” But let’s remember that defending norms is not an end in itself. Unless it is tied to and in service of a substantive commitment to democratic values it’s just empty proceduralism and silly “civility” discourse.
